The surface area can be calculated by adding the area of the rectangle and the areas of the two circles.

Rectangle:
Area = height x width = 18 yards x 15 yards = 270 yards2

Circles:
Area = πr2
Radius = diameter/2 = 15 yards/2 = 7.5 yards

Area of one circle = 3.14 x (7.5 yards)2 = 3.14 x 56.25 = 176.625 yards2
Area of two circles = 2 x 176.625 = 353.25 yards2

Total surface area = 353.25 yards2 + 270 yards2 = 623.25 yards2

So, the correct answer is:
623.25 yards2
623.25 yards squared
